摘要:Postprandial triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRL) exert proatherogenic effects at the arterial wall, including lipid deposition. Following consumption of a mixed meal (1,200 kcal), plasma-mediated cellular free cholesterol (FC) efflux, lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT), and cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activities were determined in subjects (n = 12) displaying type IIB hyperlipidemia and compared with those in a normolipidemic control group (n = 14). The relative capacity of plasma to induce FC efflux from Fu5AH cells via the SR-BI receptor was significantly increased 4 h postprandially (+23%; P P P = 0.0004) at 4 h postprandially. CE transfer to CMs and VLDL-1 was preferentially stimulated (2.6-fold and 2.3-fold respectively) at 4 h in IIB subjects and occurred concomitantly with elevation in mass and particle number of both CMs (2.3-fold) and VLDL-1 (1.3-fold). Furthermore, in type IIB subjects, CETP-mediated total CE flux over the 8 h postprandial period from HDL to potentially atherogenic TRL was significantly enhanced, and notably to VLDL-1 (32-fold elevation; P In conclusion, HDL-CE is preferentially targeted to VLDL-1 via the action of CETP during alimentary lipemia, thereby favoring formation and accumulation of atherogenic CE-rich remnant particles.
